Hamburger Steaks with Mushroom Gravy
Description
This recipe begins by combining ground beef, egg, bread crumbs, salt, and pepper, shaping the mixture into four patties. The patties are cooked in a hot cast-iron skillet until well-browned on each side and then kept warm. The pan is then used for the mushroom gravy, which starts by sautéing sliced cremini mushrooms with butter, salt, and pepper until caramelized. Additional butter and flour are stirred in to form a roux, and beef broth with Worcestershire sauce is gradually added while stirring, simmering until the mixture thickens into a gravy. The finished beef patties are returned to the skillet briefly to warm and absorb some gravy before serving. This combination results in juicy meat with a flavorful, thick mushroom sauce that complements hearty sides like mashed potatoes.
